Im only 12 and i suffer more than people think i have depression and anxiety im constantly paronoid but i love nothing more than to help people and see people happy. Stay happy and dont forget people will support you no matter what you suffer from☺️❤️🧡💛💚💙💜👍

[@littleboots9800]

Stay strong son. People care. Let them in. Our teens can be the best and the worst of times. There will be a time soon where you are more secure in yourself and less anxious about what others think. Till then, keep your chin up, seek help when you need it, and remember, people care OK? Much love.

[@DownieLive]

Phenomenal company and phenomenal cause. Thanks for sharing this story Shopify. I'm on my way to buy a hat now!

[@acornmangooner4905]

Thank you. I’ll never ever be able to thank you enough. You’ve just made me realise my life is worth fighting for. Good luck with all that you do and keep up your excellent work. You are like a true gift from God. You will always be in my prayers

[@joethestrat]

.....wow. I mean..... In an age of people only caring about the suicide rate of trans-people whilst screaming hysterically at each other over Twitter...... Thanks. Thanks a lot, helps knowing we aren't forgotten or neglected like we have been for decades. I'll be buying a hat and wearing it proudly.

[@isaacJjacobs]

You can feel the pain in his voice. This is so genuine.

[@holynoonanloveu]

This is amazing to watxh as someone who suffers severally with mental health telling people whats wrong and trying to get them to understand is horrifying. I suffer with bpd alongside other things and trying to explain to someone that i can change who i am as quick as you switch a light bulb is horrid specially for my family

[@ladyburpalot]

Thank you for this, makes me feel as though I'm not so alone, this being said by someone who battles mental illness daily...

[@elyesladjimi7202]

Me too

[@Unheardfrog69]

Love for bringing Mentalhealthawareness up to light. Helping eachother is the only way we can all live well and happy.

[@citizenk8125]

At the time of watching/reading this vlog, there were 227 dislikes for the video, my question is why & whoever those heartless 227 are you should be ashamed of yourselves. This video is one of true humanitarianism, inspiration, love & kindness; what's to dislike about that. Kudos to you my brother for setting up this hat company in the honour of your friends & continue the good work. Peace & love. G

[@SSR_RedDevil]

Sorry for your loss. My friend took her own life 5 months ago, as of yesterday. We were going to start working together in a charity shop and bicycle food deliveries. I cannot bring myself to take myself into the shop, as she was the only one that I felt comfortable with in there. She lowered my anxiety and now its getting worse and worse each day. She was my rock, and its a shame I couldnt be hers when she needed me.

[@shopify]

Hey, there. Thanks for sharing your experiences here. I am so sorry to hear about your friend. While we are always here to support you with your Shopify store, we're not equipped to directly handle issues such as this. However, I understand you’re having a difficult time and I want to help. For mental health support, I would suggest contacting your national crisis line in your region. Here is a link to a list of countries and the relevant support lines that you can avail of - bit.ly/3SjHJNz. I hope this helps, I wish you all the best.

[@Sheeshening]

came to learn about how to make a quick buck. Left with a story more emotional than lion king.

[@thisguylew2261]

This is amazing. Me and my group lost a friend the other month. Its been so hard for everyone. But sticking together is whats keeping us strong. I think its amazing what you guys are doing. Especially to help others.

[@gavtriggs664]

I feel you brah,I'm 41 now and tried to overdose on smack two weeks ago,a selfish act as I've got a family that has made me realise that I am needed,please keep doing what your doing as for every life you touch you give that life a reason to live.good luck

[@jrez0969]

Gav Triggs stay strong bro 💪

[@gavtriggs664]

Jrez09 thanks dude or dudette

[@LovetheRAF]

Thanks for sharing this video❤️no one should suffer😢don't suffer in silence your not alone❤️❤️

[@gavtriggs664]

thank you for the like,people who do this for the reasons highlighted are doing the good work,town I live in trying to get support for mental health issues is nigh impossible I know of two suicides in the last five years that could have been prevented with this sort of support,I'd like to help in some way but I can't work with teenagers as I have a awful record for violence and drug supply but two promising guys gone through lack of support,on the street I will lend shoulder as it means a difference to people who can't find someone to talk to

[@ahmedtako7128]

Schizophrenia has Alot to do with congitive Struggles, lack of Control when it comes to thoughts , but what makes me strong is my story which relates to prophet Yunus(As) which I Relate to When it comes to distress situations it gives me Hope and perseverance and My ability to adapt to it any giving circumstances

[@toppatoppa5236]

Trust me I know about depression.. bit there are different levels.. some humans have tougher challenges then others, some born into real hard poverty where they need to survive and struggle for a bite to eat to stay alive, Some people need to realise how fortunate they are and try to focus on the positives in their lives,, Being deep in depression myself I find some say they are depressed but I find that word used far to often

[@gavtriggs664]

toppa toppa dude I spent my childhood hungry surrounded by the Dark and it follows me now,but you keep the fight don't you

[@rabbitguts2518]

'How fortunate they are' depression isn't a competition mate. You can be suicidal and have a 'picture perfect' life with no troubles. Look at all the women with postnatal depression for example, even those that were exited and have no other life issue can become seriously depressed, some even dangerously so. Just because you have a hard life doesn't make you any more or less deserving of support and assistance.

[@gavtriggs664]

Rabbit Guts your right mate,my life looks OK out but that book n cover shit comes in to play in no end of situations post natal,post drug and drink addictions etc,jeez competition brah,wish I could bow and someone take my place but that ain't real is it

[@Super-qr7wm]

Are you serious the mental health people need to be helped not advertised to everyone as soon as they leave the house , all that does is help the capable people single out who to bully !! I wont be asking anyone to don a hat to humiliate themselves . Mental health needs addressing properly , not marketing it and profiting from it . How could you ?

[@rabbitguts2518]

1) Did you even watch the video? 100% goes to counselling so they don't make a profit. 2) Just because you buy a hat doesn't mean you have mental health issues it means you support said people getting help. Just like buying a rainbow flag for pride month doesn't automatically make you gay. And if someone openly ridicules another for supporting mental health then they've just outed themselves as disgusting people.

[@Super-qr7wm]

@@rabbitguts2518 counciling ? Yea awesome lets spend once a week fixating on that one moment that upset us . Yea lets manifest and harness that !!! Ive had mental health probs for years . The moment a realised i was keeping myself ill by playing with it everyday . No thanks . I got up and walked away . Mental health got left behind . Mind over matter literally . Best move of my life . Good food good vibes good body . Good mental health . Snap out of it !!! Life is a game , play correctly .

Oh I thought this was going to be a hat commercial for liberal snowflakes!

[@PiperPruiksma1986]

But do I have to buy that ugly hat?

[@rabbitguts2518]

Buy it and donate it to another charity then? Or maybe just send them an email if there's a way you can just donate to them.
